Welcome to Wikidata, Supaplex!

Wikidata is a free knowledge base that you can edit! It can be read and edited by humans and machines alike and you can go to any item page now and add to this ever-growing database!

Need some help getting started? Here are some pages you can familiarize yourself with:

  • Introduction – An introduction to the project.
  • Wikidata tours – Interactive tutorials to show you how Wikidata works.
  • Community portal – The portal for community members.
  • User options – including the 'Babel' extension, to set your language preferences.
  • Contents – The main help page for editing and using the site.
  • Project chat – Discussions about the project.
  • Tools – A collection of user-developed tools to allow for easier completion of some tasks.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on Project chat. If you want to try out editing, you can use the sandbox to try. Once again, welcome, and I hope you quickly feel comfortable here, and become an active editor for Wikidata.

Regarding your edit of Kartoffel edit

Hi, I saw this: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Lexeme:L2940&curid=55050859&diff=1056419293&oldid=939163346

I recommend you use your edit energy to link senses with Q-items instead of adding glosses. The translations you added to the gloss are redundant because the Q-item I just added to the sense potato (Q16587531) has many more translations including chinese (so we will simply grab any lexemes also linking to that Q-item). If you want you can try this game which I find very helpful in linking L-items senses to Q-items.

Happy editing :)--So9q (talk) 18:06, 19 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

I saw now that you also add the translation (P5972) which is not wrong but it is not the preferred way to add translations. I instead add a item for this sense (P5137) to the Q-item describing the thing or action and voila all "translations" (other lexemes linking to the same Q-item concept) can easily be found.--So9q (talk) 14:56, 21 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

page(s) (P304) edit

目前該屬性翻譯為「頁碼」,但考慮到近期folio(s) (P7416)已有建立,而folio直譯為中文也是「頁碼」,而這兩者會產生衝突,本站基於技術之角度也不允許兩個屬性使用同一名稱(包括翻譯名),所以我想知道閣下對於頁碼一詞之己見,是應予保留P304既有翻譯,P7416另譯為他詞?亦或變更P304翻譯,頁碼改做P7416?--Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 14:15, 29 November 2019 (UTC) (To non-Chinese users: Currently the page(s) (P304) is translated as "页码" in Simplified Chinese, and "頁碼" in Traditional Chinese, but because of the recently created folio(s) (P7416), now there's a problem that, if directly translating "folio", then that should also be "页码/頁碼" which results confliction, and by technically Wikidata will not allow two or more properties to use purely same name (also applying to translations), so I would love to know that how do you consider the original points of "页码/頁碼", should P304 continue to translate as "页码/頁碼" and consider another proper translation of P7416? Or should we alter the P304 translation, and release "页码/頁碼" for P7416 instead?) --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 14:15, 29 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

臺灣閩南語常用詞辭典例句 edit

您好:

謝謝您在維基數據的貢獻。注意到您近日在詞位空間的編輯有直接使用到《臺灣閩南語常用詞辭典》的注釋和例句,但根據其授權聲明,「文字內容部分以 創用CC姓名標示-禁止改作 3.0 臺灣 授權條款釋出」,而維基數據主要、屬性、詞位及EntitySchema命名空間的結構化資料則受創用 CC0 授權條款保護,兩者似乎有所衝突。我自己認為,最保險的方法是解釋最好重新寫一次,例句也不要和《臺灣閩南語常用詞辭典》相同,這樣會比較安全。我對此方面的了解不多,但之前有聽 @Allenwang6212a: 提到過,故特此告知。--TongcyDai   ฅ • ω • ฅ 18:52, 10 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

我的個人建議是自己造句。教典雖然有一定的權威性,但其實它的句子通常偏短,有的句子甚至無法凸顯出那個詞的獨特性(隨便換上其他詞也行得通),自己造句並不見得來得差。另承上,維基數據使用的條款已經「拋棄該著作依著作權法所享有之權利」,應無所謂合理使用的部分(這個有待高手確認)。此外,您可以直接在這條留言底下回覆並ping我,就不用再到我的討論頁了,謝謝您 :) --TongcyDai   ฅ • ω • ฅ 11:43, 11 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
hi User:TongcyDai,我這邊已經重新改寫句子,主要是加長句子。字詞意思也改掉了。就慢慢打字擴充例句了。Supaplex (talk) 16:04, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
了解了,謝謝您的貢獻!如果有時間,您也可以將您的例句放到維基詞典上,造福更多讀者~--TongcyDai   ฅ • ω • ฅ 06:29, 13 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Taiwan rivers edit

Thanks for your presentation. I created a Mix'n'Match set which may be of use for matching the Taiwan River Code (P9170). This is the one using available English labels: https://mix-n-match.toolforge.org/#/catalog/4844. I made a mistake on the one with Taiwanese labels, which I will remake sometime. --99of9 (talk) 09:45, 31 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks 990f9, I'll pass the link to other community members to clean up rivers in Taiwan. Supaplex (talk) 14:56, 31 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Here's the fixed one with the Taiwanese labels https://mix-n-match.toolforge.org/#/catalog/4846. --99of9 (talk) 02:18, 25 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your presentation at the HOT Summit, which I referenced on slide 24 of mine. Since I happen to work at an institution that studies freshwater ecology and my focus there is on invasive species, I was wondering whether you were collaborating with anyone studying the ecology of those Taiwanese rivers, and invasive species in particular. --Daniel Mietchen (talk) 17:57, 22 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

There are some people using iNaturalist to keep track of the local environment. Maybe you could have a look at it.Supaplex (talk) 01:55, 25 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Violence by Lin Ping-su (Q109931702) edit

Jianying Bridge edit

Take a look at your edit. Why you undo the interwiki links between Commons and the other wikis?--Kai3952 (talk) 12:16, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

There are two Wikidata item for the new bridge and old bridge of Jianying Bridge, and a Wikimedia disambiguation page item. Please do not merge the bridge and disambiguation page items together. You are making the page with question marks that need to fix.Supaplex (talk) 15:59, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
I don't know what you're talking about, but I know that only one bridge in the world is called "箭瑛" (see: zh:箭瑛大橋). If you don't allow anyone else to have any input into the page "Jianying Bridge" (which including the interwiki links between Commons and the other wikis), then you should fix it.--Kai3952 (talk) 12:15, 14 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
Please stick to the Wikidata:Administrators' noticeboard discussion. There are already someone answer your question. Supaplex (talk) 07:51, 15 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
My question? The vandalism that you caused to lose the interwiki links is unacceptable.--Kai3952 (talk) 12:43, 10 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
There will be no satisfied solution for all parties just as User:Gymnicus said. He suggested use Jianying Bridge (Q107708822)instance of (P31)Wikipedia article covering multiple topics (Q21484471), then link by adding Jianying Bridge (Q107708822)main subject (P921)Jianying Bridge (Q15925560) and Jianying Bridge (Q107708822)main subject (P921)Jianying Bridge (Q107708834). The Jianyin Bridge article on zh Wikimedia is a mixed of Old Bridge, New Bridge, and the movie, so can't directly link to the common page c:Category:Jianying Bridge.

Nanyang Wikidata edit

Hello Supaplex,

In In more languages - All entered languages section of the wikidata page for Nanyang, the latin label is Nanyang. In fact, the latin label should be Nanyanga (link to the latin wiki). Could you change the latin label to Nanyanga and add Nanyang under the Also known as column?

Thank you.

Done. Sorry I I have been very busy recently. Now I have time to fix it. Supaplex (talk) 17:55, 29 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Reusing items edit

Please don't repurpose items, it's discouraged per Help:Redirects and there is no need to delete valid redirects. Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 14:16, 9 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm not reuse for a total different type item, still relate to the original one. If you think it is not proper way, I will think about it. Supaplex (talk) 07:44, 10 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
As Sjoerd said, please stop. It's not OK. It doesn't matter if the new meaning is similar to the previous one, Wikidata IDs are supposed to be stable. The meaning should not change and that is important. Wikidata IDs are designed to be used by anyone and if the meaning changes, it makes us an unreliable source of data. We are not going to run out of IDs, so there is no reason to do it. - Nikki (talk) 13:38, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

編輯問題請教 edit

您好,謝謝您為中文消歧義項目大量創建Wikidata數據項,不過想請教一下,您是都直接創建、或者會先搜尋類似語種維基(像日文、粵語等都用漢字的語種)再創建呢?我個人有空時候是會進行後者,想瞭解一下您的做法。--迴廊彼端 (talk) 06:39, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi,
我這邊是用Duplicity,這個工具會定期掃各語種維基或Common那邊沒有Wikidata連結的項目。有不少消歧義還沒有建立Wikidata項目就順道建立。由於工具的限制,比較沒辦法搜尋有用到漢字的語種維基,不然就要自己有想到,試著在Duplicity搜看看。如果發現重覆,請直接動手合併即可。Supaplex (talk) 03:59, 16 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
感謝您的分享,我昨天剛好也被介紹了這個系統,大家一起努力!--迴廊彼端 (talk) 04:51, 16 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please unmerge Q111150973 edit

Please unmerge the hotel from the skyscraper. These are two different concepts. Germartin1 (talk) 08:45, 17 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

It is a single building just for the hotel. It could be separated but not illogical to be merged. Supaplex (talk) 04:31, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

new items without title edit

Please add a label to the episodes of the series Women in Taipei you added (https://w.wiki/5mvG) otherwise it is very difficult to differentiate them. CENNOXX (talk) 08:09, 4 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

The episodes' title are not announced yet. You can use Google Translation for the zh description to distinguish them.Supaplex (talk) 08:26, 4 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

台灣高鐵的P402 edit

剛剛到處亂晃時發現有使用者在兩年前大量新增P402到台灣高鐵的項目上,稍微看了一下這個使用方式應該不是很妥當,請協助我檢查一下,謝謝!tntchn Comment · Contribs 11:01, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

我處理掉了,只保留線路的 route master 與 route,移除車班的關係。@TingChia20314 先前有 mapping OpenStreetMap 物件到 Wikidata,看來把高鐵車班也處理進去沒排除掉。Supaplex (talk) 18:03, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Re: 台灣物件zh標籤用簡體字不適宜 edit

你搞錯了吧?那是系統自己生成Chinese、Chinese (Taiwan)、Traditional Chinese三個欄位,我只是對應上去輸入。此外,Chinese欄位可沒有限制用繁體字,是任何中文都可以輸入,不管是大陸簡體、台灣繁體、新馬簡體、港澳繁體。如果你手動更改,那是屬於「簡繁破壞」,所以我不建議你這麼做,因此我會回退破壞。--Kai3952 (talk) 04:05, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

You are making it wrong. Gou have to manually add the zh-hans, or zh-cn label, otherwise the system will automatically confert for the website viewer.Supaplex (talk) 04:27, 18 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Q97024677 and Houli Township edit

Dear Supaplex. Regarding this diff]. In your edit comment you stated: 縣市合併前的后里鄉 (which Google-translates to english as: "Houli Township before the merger of counties and cities"). I have no doubt this is correct, but here is the problem: You cannot use P1932 (object named as) as a qualifier for P131 (located in the administrative territorial entity), as you can see under "allowed qualifiers constraint" in P131. For this reason I must revert your edit. If you still want to enter the information, you can enter your source as a reference, and then add P1932: 后里鄉 under the reference. This will be like saying: "Here is my source for this info, and in the source it is named as 后里鄉". Thank you. Best regards Geanixx (talk) 11:09, 22 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Call for participation in a task-based online experiment edit

Dear Supaplex,

I hope you are doing well,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at King's College London, and I am working on a project as part of my PhD research, in which I have developed a personalised recommender model that suggests Wikidata items for the editors based on their past edits. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I am inviting you to a task-based study that will ask you to provide your judgments about the relevance of the items suggested by our model based on your previous edits.

Participation is completely voluntary, and your cooperation will enable us to evaluate the accuracy of the recommender system in suggesting relevant items to you. We will analyse the results anonymised, and they will be published in a research venue.

The experiment should take no more than 15 minutes, and it will be held next week.

If you agree to participate in this study, please either contact me at kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfA1wfdBfCRlcG3WhDyc-V8lzgPNx3fDFCNXkyn4CSwahXZ_A/viewform?usp=sf_link

Then, I will contact you with the link to start the study.

For more information about my project, please read this post: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Kholoudsaa

In case you have further questions or require more information, don't hesitate to contact me through my mentioned email.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards Kholoudsaa (talk) 15:11, 5 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
